King Cole Summer 4ply
The King Cole Summer 4-ply is perfect for summer, obvs. Its composition of cotton and bamboo is silky, lightweight, and really breathable. It has a slightly nubbly texture, setting it apart from the King Cole Giza 4-ply, and it also has some delicate sparkly threads that wrap around the main yarn strands for extra eye-catching glam.
This is very much a striped yarn (rather than variegated) that is perfect for cool summer garments for adults and children with it's range of colourful and more subdued colour-ways.
It also makes gorgeous, durable, vegan socks. Katie is on a mission to knit a pair in every colourway and by the time you read this, she will probably have been successful. It's not a standard sock-yarn blend, but it survives Katie's big punk steel-toe caps 8 hours a day and if that's not a glowing endorsement we don't know what is.- Fibre: 55% Bamboo, 37% Cotton, 8% PBT.
